SUMMARY:Grady Goods: The Global Cello: Diaspora Voices
DESCRIPTION:The Global Cello: Diaspora Voices\n \nJoin Jon Silpayamanant\, cellist and founder/artistic director of Saw Peep Intercultural Ensemble\, on a musical journey to hear diasporic composers drawing inspiration from stories and music styles and traditions from their ancestral homelands.\n  \nWorks by Ezra Escobar\, Reena Esmail\, May Kouyoumdjian\, Siti binti Saad\, Nathalie Joachim\, Kian Soltani\, and Jon Silpayamanant.\n \nSunday\, March 31\, 3PM Grady Goods 620 Baxter Avenue Louisville\, KY\n \nFacebook Event Page: https://www.facebook.com/events/725205432750314\n \n\n\n\nPROGRAM\n\n\n\nEzra Escobar – itulak (2020)\n\n\n itulak was conceived as a result of improvisation. I was playing around with my instrument and seeing what I liked. The title means “push” or “impel” in Tagalog. It seems like the piece is constantly trying to get somewhere\, but never really succeeds. The music keeps pushing forwards\, but something is pushing it back. \n\n\nReena Esmail – Varsha वर्षा (2019)\n\n\n Varsha was written for the Haydn Seven Last Words project\, for Juilliard415. The project commissioned seven composers (including Nico Muhly\, Paola Prestini\, Jessica Meyer\, Tania Leon\, Caroline Shaw and Colin Jacobsen) to write interludes between each of the Haydn quartets. \n\n This piece\, Varsha\, serves as an interlude between Sonata V (Sitio – “I Thirst”) and Sonata VI (Consummatum Est – “It is finished”) of Haydn’s Seven Last Words. The combination of Hindustani raags used in this piece are from the Malhaar family\, which are sung to beckon rain. \n\n I imagined an interlude between these two sonatas: Christ thirsts. Rain comes from the distance (Megh Malhaar). There is a downpour around him (Miyan ki Malhaar)\, but he grows slowly weaker. His next words make clear that even the rain is not enough: his thirst is of another sort\, which cannot be quenched by water. And so\, it is finished. \n\n\nMary Kouyoumdjian – The Revolt of the Stars (2018)\n\n\n The Revolt of the Stars is inspired by the Armenian fable by the same name\, in which the stars unite in an attempt to outshine the sun and the moon. The fable questions the effectiveness of ‘strength in numbers’ when a group that lacks strength in spirit rises up against those in positions of power. \n\n Pre-recorded cello part by Caitlyn Sullivan \n\n\nSiti binti Saad – Muhogo Wa Jangombe (1930)\n\n\n A Taarab song titled after a dish\, which literally translates as “beef cassava.” The cassava is a woody shrub with edible roots. The lyrics of the song is filled with metaphors and proverbs that discuss relationships with people while ostensibly talking about how to prepare the dish and etiquette of eating. \n\n\nJon Silpayamanant – Thawarawadi (2023) from Two Thai Tunes for solo cello\n\n\n Thawarawadi\, the first movement of Two Thai Tunes for solo cello\, is an old name for Central Thailand (7th – 11th centuries BCE) and is loosely based on Thai Classical Music forms and style. The string style is reminiscent of the Thai Saw Sam Sai\, which is a type of three-stringed spike fiddle that resembles other Southeast Asian rebabs like those found in Indonesia\, Malaysia\, and the Cambodian Tro Khmer. \n\n Commissioned by the Cello Teaching Repertoire Consortium* \n\n\nNathalie Joachim – Dam Mwen Yo (2016)\n\n\n Dam mwen yo in Haitian Creole simply translates to “they are my ladies.” In Haiti\, the cultural image of women is one of strength. They are pillars of their homes and communities\, and are both fearless and loving\, all while carrying the weight of their families and children on their backs. As a first generation Haitian-American\, these women—my mother\, grandmothers\, sisters\, aunts\, cousins—were central to my upbringing and my understanding of what it means to be a woman. In Dantan\, Haiti-Sud\, where my family is from\, it is rare to walk down the countryside roads without hearing the voices of women—in the fields\, cooking for their loved ones\, gathering water at the wells with their babies. This piece and the voices within it are representative of these ladies—my ladies. And the cello sings their song—one of strength\, beauty\, pain and simplicity in a familiar landscape. \n\n Commissioned by Amanda Gookin for The Forward Music Project. \n\n\nKian Soltani – Persian Fire Dance (2012)\n\n\n Soltani’s “Persian Fire Dance” is influenced by his Persian roots and is filled with asymmetrical meters\, drones\, an improvisatory section\, and percussive effects which mimic the tonbak (a Persian goblet drum). Having a family with traditional Persian musicians in Iran\, these are sounds and styles he grew up hearing in in Bregenz\, Austria where he was born.  \n\n\n \n\n\n\nNotes and Links\n  * Support for this commission was provided by Summer@Eastman of the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester\, and by Cello Teaching Repertoire Consortium\, including:   Co-Directors Lisa Caravan\, Daniel Ketter   Lead Commissioners Miranora Frisch\, Kathleen Kemp\, Laura Usiskin Co-Commissioners Hannah Collins\, Rosemary Elliott\, Hilary Glen\, Cora Swenson Lee\, James Nackley\, Adriana Ransom\, Jeffrey Solow\, Caleb van der Swaagh\, Benjamin Swartz\, Zachary Sweet\, James Waldo   Ezra Escobar – www.ezraescobarcello.com   Reena Esmail – www.reenaesmail.com   Mary Kouyoumdjian – www.marykouyoumdjian.com   Siti Binti Saad – historyheroines.com/2020/02/14/siti-binti-saad   Jon Silpayamanant – www.silpayamanant.com   Nathalie Joachim – www.nathaliejoachim.com   Kian Soltani – www.kiansoltani.com

SUMMARY:Grady Goods Gallery: The Jazz Series - Misha Feigin & Jon Silpayamanant
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, January 6th from 6pm-8pm for the opening of The Jazz Series: New Works by Harold Maier and music by Misha Feigin and Jon Silpayamanant!\n\nHarold became a major part of Louisville’s creative DNA in the 80’s and 90’s with Twice Told Coffee Shop and Twice Told Books; two places that were creative hubs for artists\, poets\, musicians\, and anyone looking to expand their creative horizons in a time before the internet when coffee houses and bookstores were performance spaces\, art galleries\, and collaborative meeting places full of philosophical and societal conversations. Countless musicians\, writers\, and artists in Louisville were shaped by the experiences they had in Harold’s spaces.\n\nSince his retirement 17 years ago\, Harold dove into painting and has still remained a vocal advocate for the importance of books. In this show\, Harold’s abstract paintings evoke the sounds\, feelings\, and emotions one might find in a dimly lit coffee shop while listening to a live Jazz show.\n\nSpeaking personally (Jae Grady\, here)\, Harold introduced me to several writers who influenced me\, not the least of which was the work of Kurt Vonnegut. Twice Told Coffee Shop was where I learned to play as a solo musician and where I had my first art show. Twice Told books expanded my hungry young mind in ways I’ll always be grateful for. I am one of many creatives in Louisville that benefitted from Harold’s vision and insight\, and couldn’t be more thrilled to host a show of his work at my place all these years later.\n\nWe will also have wonderful Free-Jazz music with Musician\, Poet\, and Writer Misha Feigin and Cello player Jon Silpayamanan. Join us for our very first musical guests and the first show in our “Enough Space To Share” Tiny Gallery Series!\n\nRefreshments and good conversation with local creatives will be on the menu as well- so please come by and help us celebrate the work of Harold Maier!\n\nCome start out the new year at a local venue with local musicians! \nFacebook Event Page: https://www.facebook.com/events/685525380099870/

SUMMARY:Mothership Ensemble @ Decca
DESCRIPTION:Mothership Ensemble Presents the First Concert of its 2013-14 Season at Decca\n\nWHEN: Thursday\, November 21\, 20138:00pm concert\, 7:30 pm doors\nWHERE: Decca Restaurant812 East Market StreetLouisville\, KY 40206\nADMISSION: Free\n\nOn Thursday\, November 21st\, contemporary/avant-garde music collective Mothership Ensemble will present the first concert of their 2013-14 concert season at Decca. The program will feature both newly-composed works and 20th century classics performed by some of the most versatile and enthusiastic players in the Louisville area.\n\nThe centerpiece of the program is Louis Andriessen’s raucous\, 20-minute epic Workers Union (1975)\, written for “any loud-sounding group of instruments.” The composer describes the piece as a political metaphor that features “a combination of individual freedom and severe discipline… it is difficult to play in an ensemble and to remain in step\, sort of like organizing and carrying on political action.”\n\nMothership will also present the world premiere of Louisville composer Chris Kincaid’s sensuous and atmospheric Full Sunlight\, written for bass flute\, viola\, cello\, and electronic sounds. The work is inspired by the poem “Full Sunlight” written by Louisville-born poet Conyer Clayton. Kincaid was interested in how “much of the poem is portrayed as a still shot\, a moment in time that is filled with so much. The music is not exactly frozen in time\, but instead takes place in time that slowed almost to a standstill.”\n\nEnsemble director and cellist Jon Silpayamanant will perform in almost every work on the program\, including two pieces written specifically for him by Louisville-based composer Rylee Short. Mayaplis\, for solo cello and electronics\, depicts the immersive\, electrifying\, and overwhelming experiences of being in a large city. Short’s Lucid Themes\, originally written for multimedia duo Camera Lucida\, features gorgeous video projections by artist Roxell Karr in a lively duet with Silpayamanant.\n\nProgram:\n“Mandala” (1996) – Jeffrey RadcliffeTwo Instruments (1958) – Morton Feldman“Mayaplis” (for solo cello and pedals\, 2012) – Rylee Short“The Great Train Race” (for Solo Flute) – Ian ClarkeTwo duets for Bassoon and Cello – Edison Vassilievich Denisov\n—break—\n“Shengshi zisheng tu” 盛世滋生圖 (for Chinese erhu\, electronics\, video\, 2013) – Jon SilpayamanantImprovisation – Jackie Royce\, Jon Silpayamanant“Lucid Themes” (for cello\, dancer\, electronics\, interactive video\, 2013) – Rylee Short“Worker’s Union” (1975) – Louis Andriessen
